If your business belongs in the healthcare industry, you handle patient data. As such, you may have heard of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). HIPAA is a piece of US legislation that requires organizations that regularly collect, process, and store patient data or protected health information (PHI) to protect it from unlawful and unauthorized disclosure.

Many businesses are now subject to the constant threat of hacking and malware. Your law firm is no exception. A law firm handles sensitive client data on a daily basis and hackers who want to steal this data come in many guises, ranging from financially-motivated criminals to political activists.
